Diversity in Computer Science and Engineering

The Berkeley Foundation for Opportunities in Information Technology (BFOIT) is
committed to increasing the number of historically underrepresented ethnic minorities
and women pursuing careers in computing and IT. We do so by providing youth with the
knowledge, resources, practical programming skills and guidance necessary to pursue
bachelors and advanced degrees in computer science and engineering. We work in
partnership with colleagues and organizations in the Bay area to provide educational
programs that expose middle and high school students to the beauty, joy and promising
future of computing. BFOIT is working actively on the development of new programs to
be implemented in 2016 and beyond - please contact us here -
